Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kramodlog" data-source="post: 7667884" data-attributes="member: 55961">The free stuff was already in the AP, exept for 4 races. It is minimal support. Funny how you see a setting. I've read other people say it is too much set at the same location. Of course not! They are busy with meetings and answering 200 emails a day (see Chris Perkin's interview on youtube)! Seriously, read Jeremy Crawford's interview. He said a lot of people are working on other stuff (not the RPG) and some on RPG books. Which books? "Stories, stories, stories". Paizo's success says otherwise.  4e failed cause it was bad. As for Pathfinder, read Erik Mona's interview that says player base and sells are still growing post 5e release. They also talked how the warlock was cool (a splat class that has now been in two PHB), how tome of battle was cool, how eberron was cool, how Unapproachable East and Silver March were cool...Without trying out new splat class will we ever see new classes in the PHB?Like I said, no, but that doesn't mean that what we'll see will be RPG content. Boardgames, comics, novels, videogames, are all stuff they can be working on too. And we know they are working on those. We've been told!Ah, but you asked for some evidence. I provided it. But like I said, no matter what I provided I couldn't meet your expectations mainly because you feel I'm attacking D&D and must defend it. What I'm doing is critiquing the support WotC is giving the RPG because I care about D&D. We are on the same side. I just think it will take a bit longer for you to see what I see and agree with me. One of us. One of us. One of us.They produced player compagnions and 64 pages campaign setting gazetters too. Support is more than hardcover books. That support started in 2007 when they released their first AP. Yeah, I quoted him saying that.  Yup, and one or two class, one race, fits well into a 256 pages book. It is support for the AP, but not for the RPG in general. Sure, you can use it in a homebrew campaign, but who would buy a 50$ book for one class or one race?So did 3.x and Paizo, and they both worked. 4e didn't work because it was bad. The quantity of material might not have helped, but going the other extreme is not a better solution.Discusion can work like that and in this thread I see lots of people doing it.</blockquote>
